      I've found myself often leaving comments about comment style on PRs, in pursuit of the style described in the style guide (https://github.com/10gen/mongo/blob/master/docs/cpp_style.md#documentation)

      This seems like the sort of review comment that would be preferable to be enforced via a linter, so that we don't waste CR cycles + developer velocity on formatting questions. 

      Consider making an automated linter rule that is able to enforce this portion of the style guide.
